Step into Nike History with the Nike Sportswear Womens Cortez in Desert Black Sail, inspired by the 1972 original designed by Bill Bowerman. This iconic silhouette is returned to your feet with classic comfy leather and the iconic wedge insert. Enhanced with a wider toe box and a more durable feel, it features a padded low collar and classic herringbone outsole for support. The reengineered upper is extra durable to help prevent warping, creasing, and scuffing. The wider toe box provides a more comfortable fit, and the firmer side panels help keep your foot in place for a more stable feel. The foam midsole with iconic wedge insert allows for comfortable all-day wear, while the herringbone outsole pattern offers durable traction and heritage style. Never going out of style is the retro Nike Cortez, inspired by the '72 original with the iconic wedge delivering comfort with every step. This lightweight style gained popularity as a running shoe following its initial release and has since transformed into an icon of contemporary culture.
